THE FAÇADE SPECIALISTThe façade is known as the face of a

building (and even the company that

owns it). It certainly has the major

share in the appearance and impact

of a building – but building façades

are as variable and individual as

peoples faces are. And they need to

be cared for and protected just as

individually to maintain the value of

the investment. Cosmetics alone are

not enough, only comprehensive

treatment and specific protection

which is carefully matched to the

different requirements and problem

areas will produce durable and

sustainable good appearance.

Remmers is a unique specialist in

building façades: The more individual

and complex the structure and its

problems, the more our strengths

come to the fore – top class

products and integrated systems,

combined with our wealth of

knowledge on the refurbishment of

every building façade substrate.

INTEGRATED SOLUTIONSProblem, Diagnosis, Therapy: This is

the only real way for a doctor to help

his “patient”. This applies equally

to the preventative protection of

modern façades and most of all to

refurbishment and restoration of old

buildings. Correct determination of all

the main parameters and a proper

condition survey and analysis are

pre-requisites for the selection of the

most appropriate individual refurbish-

ment concept. On-the-spot individual

advice is also indispensable. This is

particularly true for façades that are

made from combinations of different

materials, including concrete render,

brick, stone, timber and others.

Remmers has the best integrated

solutions whatever the combination of

materials and their requirements.

INDIVIDUAL WATERPROOFPROTECTIONWaterproofing, water vapour

permeability and driving rain

resistance – water repellence – are

also primary functions of the façade.

As a result, over the last 50 years

Remmers has become a technology

and market leader in hydrophobic

products and systems for all types

of masonry, concrete brick, natural

stone or combined façades.

Remmers has also developed

innovative processes for their

application and refurbishment of

façades already damaged by

moisture.

COMPREHENSIVE RANGEAs complete problem solvers,

façade cleaning products and

protective coatings are also an

important part of our range,

together with ‘state of the art’ rapid

repair systems for durable concrete

refurbishment.

Remmers façade protection

systems also include both mineral

and silicone resin based coatings,

advanced stone consolidating and

strengthening solutions as well as

unique stone restoration mortars.

All of these Remmers system

components are always perfectly

matched, complimentary, practical

and also designed for their ease of

use on site.

THE MOST PRESTIGIOUSDISCIPLINEConservation for heritage and

monument protection is without

doubt the highest discipline of

building protection. Remmers is the

clear No. 1 in Europe for this.

Company founder Bernhard

Remmers was passionately

committed to it from the beginning.

For more than 50 years now, there

has been an extremely productive

connection between the most

demanding restoration requirements

and the development of our heritage

conservation and restoration

systems. It has been a case of

growing into the job. How else

could all of the specific details –

from the degree of weathering of

different materials in different

building environments – be analysed

and incorporated in our solutions so

meticulously?!

PRESERVING OURCULTURAL HERITAGEHeritage and Monument or Sculptor

Conservators are quite rightly our

most critical “clients”. Mistakes

could easily lead to the loss of

irreplaceable heritage. Precision,

extreme care and a scientific

approach are an absolute must

in the refurbishment of these

structures. The conservation

concept and all of the objectives

are always fully prepared in detail

beforehand.

These can all vary widely: Resto-

ration of the structure or conservati-

on of the authentic original fabric?

Remmers specialists understand

heritage conservation requirements

and also value the structures that

have to be preserved.

OUTSTANDING EXPERTISEDuring the past 50 years Remmers

has worked on many of the most

important heritage buildings in

Europe. Technical competence and

expertise unique in the industry, has

been acquired in conjunction with

most eminent international experts.

With literally towering references:

Europe’s highest church tower on

Ulm Cathedral (161 m), the British

Houses of Parliament, Cologne

Cathedral, St. Stephen’s Cathedral

in Vienna, St. Basil’s Cathedral

facing the Kremlin in Red Square

and many more. Even in the

tropical climate of Cambodia, at the

legendary vast temple complex of

Angkor Wat and on the Great Wall

of China, Remmers’ expertise and

products have been well proven.

TAILORED SOLUTIONSWhen historic stone structures

deteriorate, sound advice is needed.

By drawing on Remmers extensive

range of products and systems, our

specialists can tailor make solutions

which are as individual as the

structure in need of protection:

specifically matched and compatible

with the type of stone, the degree

of weathering, the extent of deterio-

ration and the ambient conditions,

plus– above all – the special

characteristics of the building, its

occupants and its environment.

HISTORIC MONUMENTPROTECTION Because conservation is far more

than just a business to us, we set

up the Bernhard Remmers Academy

in Germany, where the latest interna-

tional restoration knowledge and

experience is gathered, exchanged

and passed on. All of the profits the

Academy makes are donated to the

“German Foundation for Historic

Monument Protection”.

Yet another contribution by

Remmers, to the preservation of our

cultural heritage.

Brick is one of the most traditional

building materials. The reason for

this, apart from its visual qualities,

was – and still is – the durability of

this abundant material, which can

hardly even be matched in its

performance by concrete.

But a brick façade consists not only

of the bricks themselves but also

the of joints between them. These

joints are generally less durable than

the brick and often become the

weak points of the façade.

High moisture absorption by one or

both of these two materials is

usually the trigger for the façade

deterioration and damage.

This emphasises the importance of

effective protection to equalise the

absorbency of the brick and the

jointing / pointing mortar, plus to

reduce the total water absorption of

the façade. This can be achieved

with a correctly balanced and

structured hydrophobic impregnation.

The protection system for fair-faced

brickwork developed by Remmers

provides long-term protection against

moisture penetration and guarantees

longevity with the maximum

durability.

CLEANING & ACCUMULATED

SALT REMOVALCleaning is not just for the appearance. Layers of dirt store moisture and pollutantsprevent the substrate drying out. Salts areremoved from the surface with Remmers SaltRemoval Compresses. The compress isapplied like an elastoplast and is removedwith the trapped salts after about 3 weeks.

2

REMOVING DETERIORATED

POINTING Refurbishment of a brick façade almostalways involves renewing the pointing, whichhas usually deteriorated. Except for whenslurry pointing is appropriate, the existingjoints must be raked out to a depth of 20 mmor twice the joint width.

4

WATER REPELLING &

ANTI-GRAFFITI PROTECTIONFor preventative long-term protection againstmoss, fungi and algae growth, a liquid organicgrowth inhibitor can be applied before thehydrophobic agent, which can then be appliedas either a protective liquid or a special gel /cream formulation. The semi-permanent Rem-mers anti-graffiti system can be used to makeany future graffiti easier to remove.

5

COATING OR SCUMBLEAs an alternative to a hydrophobic treatment,the façade can also be made water repellentwith a silicone resin based coating or a lessvisible silicone resin ‘scumble’. This is nowstandard practice for some authorities.

3

BRICK RESTORATION & POINTINGDamaged bricks are replaced or restored withRemmers Restoration Mortar SK.They are then repointed with a fresh mortarproduced with the same Remmers binder plusthe correct grading and colour of sand.

REPOINTING THE BRICKSIn addition to traditional repointing by hand,the pointing mortars can be machine applied,particularly on large façades with wider joints.Remmers Pointing Mortar MG has been specially developed for machine applicationand is available in either ‘capillary active’ or‘hydrophobic’ grades to suit both of thesealternative requirements.

The Funcosil Brick Slurry Pointing

System consists essentially of two

phases: Applying a new hydraulic

pointing material and then making the

whole façade water repellent with

hydrophobic agents. The pointing

material is a fine-grained slurry with a

sulphate resistant cement binder.

This guarantees high salt resistance,

even on brickwork susceptible to

attack from sulphates ie in gypsum

salts, which is often the case with

older buildings. The slurry pointing has

very high adhesion due to the quality

of the mortar and the application

system. The process (brick slurry poin-

ting) is also very economic because it

offers considerable time savings. The

time required for chiselling and raking

out the joints, plus the possibility of

damage to the bricks themselves is eli-

minated.

Much less work is required to apply

the mortar into the joints than with a

conventional pointing trowel. Another

major advantage: even narrow joints

and small cracks (too narrow for a tro-

wel) can be filled with mortar flush with

the surface. Taking all of the time

saving effects into account, an overall

time and cost saving of at least 25%

can be assumed.

Funcosil Brick Slurry Pointing has

unique advantages:

� Joint renovation and water

repellency for the whole façade

� Excellent adhesion

� Similar coefficient of water

absorption for joints and bricks

� Time and cost saving compared

with conventional pointing

� Improved thermal insulation of the

dry façade

“Water is to blame for everything”

A large number of the mechanisms

leading to building damage are

directly or indirectly connected with

the moisture absorption of the buil-

ding material.

For example, the pollutant absorption

of a material increases as moisture

penetrates inside it. Salts are trans-

ported into the material in dissolved

form; pollutants from the atmosphere

are absorbed by rain (“acid rain”),

which then carries them into the

façade. Physical properties –

particularly thermal conductivity –

also change, rising dramatically and

reducing insulation, as the moisture

content increases.

Because water has such good

heat conductivity, a reduction in

the moisture content of a material

always increases its thermal

insulation properties. Additionally,

a water repellent material applied on

a single-skin brickwork façade, can

result in a dew point adjustment

within the fabric, that also greatly

reduces the risk of mould forming

indoors. Inadequate attention is also

often paid to the fact that

many building materials react to an

increase in moisture content by

losing strength. The damage

processes associated with water

and moisture are far more extensive

and varied than the few major ones

described here. Water repellence is

the only real answer to many of

these damage mechanisms. With a

Funcosil hydrophobic agent you can

protect your bricks from further

damage in future, improve the

indoor environment and also save

valuable energy.

A rendered or part rendered façade has

been popular throughout history. One of

the reasons is its versatility of form and

colour. The traditional mortar renders for

façades are cementitious based and

finish renders (EN Group II) are usually

cement lime renders. There are also

thermal insulation renders which consist

of a thermally insulating base render

and a water-repellent mineral finish

plaster. They are used on solid walls

and can combine good insulation with

appropriate physical properties.

A rendered façade can age in complex

ways. Changes in the weather can

create extreme stress on and within the

wall structure. Cracks, water damage

and separation of the façade layers

leading to delamination or detachment

can occur. Particularly at risk are

darker areas, areas with alternating

materials, decorative plaster features

such as string courses, corners or

angles, plus their coatings with

different thermal expansion coefficients

or waterproofing properties. The render

is also progressively stressed by

moisture from internal condensation,

rain absorption and the release of

dissolved salts or rising capillary damp

within the material.

To prevent deterioration with powdering,

scouring, cracks and other defects in

the render and its coatings, then it is

important to have adequate roof

overhangs, cornices, splash zone

protection and damp-proof courses. All

of these require regular inspection and

maintenance, including the coatings

which are of course vitally important for

durability of the rendered facade.

CLEANING EXISTING RENDERED

AREASIf the existing render only needs to be recoated and not replaced, thorough cleaningis still essential to ensure adhesion of the newcoating to the substrate.

1

REMOVING THE DAMAGED

RENDERIf the old render is badly damaged, it must becompletely removed, as shown in the examplehere.

2

STRENGTHENINGThe render base and the old render mayhave to be strengthened or consolidatedbefore carrying out further works. This can be done with Remmers Silicate Streng-thening solution and on historic heritagebuildings with Remmers KSE 300 E.

3

LEVELLING & BASE RENDERThe substrate must be as flat or level as possible, so that the render cures uniformlywithout cracking. Uneven areas and any cavities, e.g. opened cracks etc., are firstlevelled with Remmers base render. This is fol-lowed by the special splatterdash bond coatand the base render.

4

REPAIRING CRACKSStatic cracks in the render can generally besealed by simply widening them, priming withPenetrating Primer and filling with SiliconeResin Filler.Larger cracks through the render are openedwide (unless complete isolation and structuraljoint treatment is necessary due to the like-lihood of further movement) and primed withPenetrating Primer and rendered over withBonding Mortar and fabric scrims.

5

FINISHING RENDERThe surface is smoothed and the façade isgiven its final texture with the mineral finishesFine Render and Decorative Render L whichare easy to apply by hand or with suitablespray machines.

6

STUCCODamaged stucco elements can either beretouched in situ with Remmers Coarse andFine Tensile Mortar or removed and restoredin the workshop with Remmers Stucco andthen reattached later.

7

COATING OR SCUMBLINGThe final coating is either opaque or transparent. Using the highly vapour diffusibleand water repellent silicone resin system withRemmers Silicone Resin Paint LA or HistoricScumble or the Remmers Mineral Paint Silicate Paint D.

Crack damage may be minor, but if

it is not repaired further damage to

the building fabric is inevitable in

the longer term – usually caused by

the expansion or contraction of the

render substrate and increased

moisture penetration e.g. on combi-

ned substrate masonry facades or

materials which are particularly

prone to moisture absorption.

Common causes of cracks on

façades are variable thermal

conductivity and exposure (shade

etc), differential movement of the

building or the render substrates

(e.g. settlement), incorrect

preparation of the render base or

renders which are too hard/brittle

(high compressive, low tensile

strengths).

Crack refurbishment possibilities

Static but not dynamic cracks

(no further movement anticipated):

� Widen the crack

� Prime the crack edges with a

strengthening impregnation

� Fill the crack with an elastic,

resin bound fine mortar (Silicone

Resin Filler)

Dynamic cracks with low deformation

or residual deformation (slight future

movement is possible)

� Remove the render on both sides

to a width of about 200 mm

� Apply a dividing layer to separate

the finishing render and the

render base

� Insert reinforcing mesh in the

render base

� Apply the render in two layers.

forced mortar; finishing render

A façade paint with these properties

achieves a “Gore-Tex” effect, so to

speak. What we see as the best

approach for all-weather clothing is

also best for the durable weather

protection of façades.

Advantages of Remmers Silicone

Resin Paint

� The outstanding characteristic of

Remmers Silicone Resin Paint LA

is the combination of maximum

water vapour permeability and

low capillary water absorption.

Giving the highest results under

the façade protection classifi-

cation of Dr. Künzel.

� Also suitable for mortar rendered

areas

� Suitable for over coating old coating

areas of any kind (except for highly

elastic and glossy systems)

� Easy to use by any method

of application, with excellent

opacity and coverage

� Colour-fast inorganic pigments

enable colours to be mixed very

precisely for both traditional and

modern façades

� Good brush application and a

variety of scumble options

(Historic Scumble and Historic

Slurry Scumble)

� Suitable over limewash coatings

� Very low dirt pick up

Applications

� All mineral substrates in the heri-

tage preservation and façade

protection sectors

� All mineral pebble-dashes

� Mortar rendered areas

� Fair-faced blockwork

� Fair-faced brickwork

� Composite thermal insulation

systems

� Synthetic resin renders

� Areas with differential moisture

absorption properties (e.g. after

rendering )

� Refurbished rendered areas

� Problem areas (foundations and

external basement exits)

If in doubt, a silicone resin paint

should always be selected for

façades with previous vapour

diffusion damage, which is quite

easy to identify from the old

coating. This will provide reliable

protection even from driving rain

and the high water vapour

permeability providing a future

safety factor.

What is more beautiful than an old

stone wall of granite, limestone or

sandstone? Not so many houses

are made of stone nowadays

because supplies are limited and

they are much more expensive

than “normal” buildings. So it is

important to keep the stone

buildings already in existence in

a good condition. Apart from

prestigious heritage buildings such

as Cologne Cathedral where teams

of restorers and stonemasons have

a lifetime’s work, the focus is now

more on old urban residential and

commercial buildings with their

stone mouldings and window

reveals. Unlike brick and modern

building materials, with natural

stone there is a great difference not

only in the form, colour and surface

texture of the blocks but also in

their physical and chemical charac-

teristics. A detailed inspection is

always essential. With natural stone

in particular, conservation of the

original material and matching of the

new restoration materials are vitally

important for long-term conser-

vation of the fabric. The experience

gained by Remmers on prestigious

buildings provides security for

clients with these “smaller” but no

less important projects.

MASONRY CONSOLIDATIONTo increase the stability and consolidate loose masonry with voids, the voids are low pressure grouted with Remmers HoleSuspension or Remmers Historic GroutingMortar (according to the German WTA Worksheet 4-3-98-D).

1

CLEANING AND ACCUMULATED

SALT REMOVALCleaning is not just for the appearance: layersof dirt store moisture and pollutants and prevent the substrate drying out.Salts are removed from the surface area with Remmers Salt Removal Compresses. The compressis applied like an elastoplast and is removed with theabsorbed salts after about 3 weeks.

2

REMOVING POINTING MORTARNearly every refurbishment of a natural stonefaçade involves renewal of the pointing whichhas usually deteriorated. Generally the jointsmust be raked out to a depth of 20 mm ortwice the joint width.

3

EXPANSIVE SWELLING REDUCTIONIn many types of stone a major cause ofdamage is “hygric expansion and contraction”which is caused by swellable clay particleswithin the stone (there is a characteristic earthy smell when the stone is wet). Thedegree and rate of swelling can be reducedby treating the stone with the unique Remmers Antihygro Swelling Reducer, currently the only one of its kind.

4

STONE RESTORATION & POINTINGDamaged stone blocks are replaced or restored with Remmers Restoration MortarSK. They are repointed with a pointing mortarproduced with the same binder, using a suitable grading and colour of sands.

6

WATER REPELLENCE &

ANTI-GRAFFITI PROTECTIONFor preventative long term protection againstmoss, mould and algae growth, Remmers antimicrobiological Impregnation BFA can beapplied before the hydrophobic agent. Waterrepellence is always the final stage of restoration. The semi-permanent RemmersAnti-graffiti which makes any future graffitieasier to remove can also be used.

SCUMBLINGMany types of stone cannot be given an adequate hydrophobic impregnation due totheir open structure. If water repellence isnecessary however, it can be achieved byusing a surface scumble system. RemmersHistoric Scumble and Slurry Scumble werespecially developed for this purpose.

8

STRENGTHENINGThe purpose of strengthening is to restore the original strength characteristics by the targeted addition of suitable binders. Remmers have a large range of silica ester(KSE) based stone strengthening solutionsavailable for this special purpose.

Remmers stone consolidating and

strengthening solutions are used world-

wide to protect valuable cultural heritage

buildings and structures. Many research

and development projects for important

buildings with specific requirements

have helped us to generate a complete

range which can provide solutions for

every requirement.

The table below is designed as an aid

to the selection of a suitable stone

strengthening solution or stone streng-

thening combination treatment for the

widespread limestones and sandstones

that commonly require this treatment.

This list is intended as a useful guide,

but the specific treatment required on a

particular structure or type of stone, can

only be determined by a preliminary sur-

vey (using depth profile measurements).

Characteristics and advantages

� The correct strengthening

system for every type of stone

� Used successfully on some of

the most important buildings in

the world

� Non hydrophobic

� High depths of penetration

� Silica ester (KSE) based

� Partial or full surface consolidation

and strengthening works are possible

� The products form strengthening sili-

ca gel structures in the voids, which

matches the nature of the original

sandstone and limestone binders

The Remmers restoration mortar system

has been specially developed to repair,

restore and re-profile natural stone buil-

ding materials. So it can be adapted to

the different characteristics required for

this wide range of materials, in terms of

strength, colour and layer thickness etc.

The most advanced and efficient of

these products is Remmers Restoration

Mortar SK, which can also be feather

edged “to nothing” to match complex

details and profile requirements.

Therefore damaged areas of natural

stone, no longer have to be broken

out with excessive removal of sound

stone to a minimum 20 – 30 mm

thickness. Instead, this advanced

mortar can be applied directly to

the sound, cleaned and prepared

surfaces, simply following the

irregular pattern of the profile after

removal of just the damaged material.

Characteristics and advantages

� Large range of materials for

optimum technical adaptation to

the substrate

� High performance binders

� Low free alkali content

� Excellent adhesion

� Different strength grades

� Different gradings for different

layer thicknesses

� Almost any colour available

(with Remmers unique colour

matching service)

� Suitable for all mineral building

substrates (brick, render and

concrete as well as natural or

reconstituted stone)

Europe has in its building stocks a

large number of historic half-timbered

buildings that have a high economic

and cultural value. This area of our

heritage is unfortunately now endan-

gered due to the past lack of care

and inappropriate refurbishment.

The care and maintenance of

half-timbered buildings used to be a

simple, natural job for users, owners

and tradesmen. Everyone involved

knew the properties of the few

materials used and locally always

available. Nowadays the situation is

different. The standards of comfor-

table living have risen considerably;

and the type and number of building

materials on offer have increased

even more. Yet the wealth of experi-

enced people and the numbers of

specialists with the know-how about

half-timbering have both fallen nearly

to zero over the last two generations,

The consequences have been

dramatic. By far the greatest part of

the damage that can now be seen on

half-timbered buildings originates

from faulty albeit often well intentio-

ned work over recent decades.

The Federal Government of Germany

and many other institutions including

the Bernard Remmers Academy,

have now helped to fill the know-

ledge gap. The results are now

available for all of the different

requirements but these have not yet

fully reached specifiers, authorities

and the planning offices, the contrac-

ting companies and ultimately the

restoration sites.

With the Remmers half-timbering

refurbishment system, it is now

possible to fully overcome this pre-

vious knowledge deficit for the first

time. This complete system includes

timber preservatives and coatings,

infill mortars and specialised coating

materials for these infills. So there is

now a fully coordinated and techni-

cally correct product range for the

restoration of half-timbered facades,

which can help to sustain this part of

our heritage long term, to maintain it

and preserve it for the future.

TIMBER PREPARATIONHalf-timbering often has many layers of paintwhich have to be removed.Old emulsion coatings with Remmers GraffitiRemover and old oil-based paints with Remmers Stripper.

1

FAIR-FACED BRICK INFILL

PREPARATIONCleaning is not just for the appearance: layersof dirt often retain moisture and pollutants andthese must therefore be removed. Damagedjoints must be raked out to a minimum depthof 20 mm or twice the joint width.

2

RENDERED BRICK INFILL

PREPARATIONRendered surfaces are often so badly damaged that removal of the old render isessential. Damaged bricks and joints underthe render must also be removed.

3

COB INFILL PREPARATIONEasily damaged cob (unburnt bricks withstraw) infills can and should be repaired withtraditional cob. Badly damaged infills must becompletely removed.

4

RENDERED BRICK INFILL

RECONSTRUCTIONAfter repointing to level with Pointing MortarZF and Restoration Mortar SK, the fully compatible Remmers Half-timbering FinishRender is applied.

6

RENDERED COB INFILL

RECONSTRUCTIONThe reconstruction is done by spray-appliedinfilling with Remmers Half-timbering Mortar.The mortar is sprayed onto shuttering erectedfrom the inside. Suitable backing laths mustfirst be fixed on the reveal sides of the timberbeams.

7

INFILL COATINGThe infills are finally coated with either Remmers Mineral Paint OH or the RemmersHistoric Lime Paint system.

8

TIMBER COATINGAfter Remmers timber preservative treatmentwhere necessary, the timber is coated withappropriate Remmers paints or scumbles, either opaque or transparent grades are available to suit all requirements.

Linseed oil paint HS

Linseed oil was used for centuries

to make paint because it was

readily available and it has excellent

‘drying’ properties. At Remmers we

have now effectively rediscovered

and further developed it as a binder

for a high quality, semi-gloss paint

for half-timbered facades.

Characteristics and advantages

� Main binder linseed oil, now

alkyd resin reinforced for a

longer life

� High opacity and coverage

� High solids content

� High colour retention and

weathering resistance with

permanent elasticity

� Easy to use with a long pot life

Mineral paint OH

Very high performance specifications

must be defined for the capillarity

and vapour permeability of all the

materials in the half-timbered façade

infills – the infill material, the render

and the coatings – so that the

moisture penetrating from outside

can be quickly dissipated. For the

infill we recommend our specially

formulated, non water repellent,

one-part mineral paint OH. The

principle of this silicate paint is

based on silicification of the water

glass paint binder within the

substrate. A strong, inseparable

mineral bond is then formed between

the paint and the render.

The high water vapour and capillary

permeability of mineral paint OH

ensures that moisture ingress

can be released outside again

unhindered, mainly through the

connection joint between the infill

and the timber surrounding. So

water does not accumulate in the

infill and cannot damage the

timbers.

Remmers Half-timbering Mortar was

specially developed for the specific

requirements called for in this field.

For the user it is extremely important

that the mortar can be applied

mechanically by spray and that

each infill can be produced in one

operation – meaning thick layers

can be applied. Since many original

half-timbered buildings are often

only single skin, the Remmers

Half-timbering Mortar has already

assisted many occupants with the

benefit of its additional sound and

heat insulating properties.

Characteristics and advantages

� Mechanical application

(sprayable)

� Thick layers can be applied

(single layer up to 80 mm)

� Capillary conductivity and high

vapour diffusibility suitable for

half-timbering

� Heat and sound insulating

The main ingress point for rainwater

is the gap or joint between the infill

and the timber framework, which

is typical in half-timbering façade

construction. Due to the compo-

sition and low E-modulus of the

Remmers Half-timbering Mortar, its

shrinkage and cracking is greatly

reduced. This minimises the crack

widths in this boundary area bet-

ween the timber frame and the new

infill mortar.

The result of having much smaller

cracks, is that much less rainwater

is initially absorbed into the

structure. Due to the specially

formulated water transport capacity,

this small quantity of water can

quickly reach the infill surface again

and evaporate. Therefore Remmers

Half-timbering Mortar ensures that

the infill material dries out quickly,

which then helps to maintain the

thermal and structural values of the

whole half-timbered building.

Concrete is the favourite building

material of our time for its well

known cost: performance and

design flexibility reasons. Despite its

high strengths and resistance,

damage can still occur and require

refurbishment and additional protec-

tion. The main damage mechanism

is expansive reinforcement

corrosion, due to high carbonation

depths or the penetration of

chlorides (e.g. from de-icing salts).

There can also be a lot of damage

due to continuous moisture

penetration through cracks, this too

can cause steel corrosion and frost

damage of the concrete. Remmers

systems can provide cosmetic,

structural and heritage concrete

repairs and future protection,

all of which are virtually unrivalled,

particularly for their speed.

All of Remmers products and

systems for the repair and protec-

tion of reinforced concrete are

designed and tested to the latest

international standards. Specifically

in accordance with EN 1504 The

Repair and Protection of Concrete,

which is currently in the process of

being rolled out in all European

countries, where it now replaces all

previous national standards, test

methods and procedures.

CLEANINGCleaning is not just for the appearance. Layers of dirt retain moisture and pollutantsand prevent the substrate drying out.

1

CRACK SEALINGTo ensure a good bond and waterproof sealing, cracks are grouted with RemmersInjection Resin 100. If some elasticity is still required between the crack faces, then Remmers 2-part PURInjection Resin is used as an alternative.

2

REMOVING CONCRETE OVER

CORRODING STEELAny actively corroding reinforcement is completely exposed.

3

REMOVING RUST AND

CORROSION PRODUCTSRust is removed mechanically from the corro-ded reinforcement to a level of cleanlinessapproximately equivalent to SA 21/2.

4

CONCRETE REPAIR &

REPLACEMENTThe broken out area can be repaired withBetofix RM Mortar in a single layer in oneoperation. The new concrete surface protection can then be applied after only 3 hours.

6

WATER REPELLENCE &

ANTI-GRAFFITI PROTECTIONTo protect the reinforcement from further corrosion, a hydrophobic agent can be used.This prevents water penetrating into the concrete to corrode the steel. Remmers Anti-Graffiti can be used to make any futuregraffiti easier to remove.

7

PROTECTIVE COATING OR

SCUMBLINGRemmers Concrete Acrylic, an opaque, matt,pure acrylic based protective coating and Remmers Historic Slurry Scumble, a semi-opa-que, silicone resin based coating, can be used as anti carbonation protection for new, repairedand historic or listed concrete buildings andstructures. They also provide water repellence.

8

CORROSION PROTECTIONBetofix RM, improved with Remmers RustInhibitor M, is used as an anti-corrosive slurrycoating on the cleaned reinforcement bars.The slurry coated area can then be repairedwith Betofix RM Mortar only 30 minutes afterits application. Migratory Corrosion Inhibitorcan then be applied over the whole repairedand unrepaired surfaces as required.

Time is money – and not just when

things have to go really quickly.

Remmers Betofix RM sets new

standards in concrete refurbish-

ment. The whole refurbishment

system can be completed from

steel corrosion protection through

to protective surface coating in one

day. For smaller repair projects in

particular, such as on small balcony

decks or parapets, there is no

longer any need for more than one

site visit. So especially here, it is

even more important to have a rapid

system with just a few coordinated

products with good application and

easy to use characteristics.

Characteristics and advantages:

� Concrete refurbishment from

steel corrosion protection to

protective surface coating in

one day

� Betofix RM combines the

properties of four products

(primer, bond coat, repair mortar

and levelling mortar)

� Surface repair and levelling with

the same material

� An additional bond coat is not

necessary due to the excellent

substrate adhesion (up to

4 N/mm2)

� When improved with Remmers

Rust Inhibitor M, it can also be

used as an anti-corrosive coating

� Overpaintable after only 2-3 hours

� Unique rapid refurbishment

system that conforms to EN 1504

� Cures without cracking, even in

higher layer thicknesses

� Easy overhead application

� Can be tooled and finished

Using water repellence of the building

materials is a method of protecting

structures which has been known for

centuries. In his work “De Architec-

tura Libri Decem”, The Roman

scholar Vitruvius described the use

of natural oils to make mortar water

repellent and therefore more weather

resistant. Nowadays silanes and

siloxanes or their combinations are

mainly used as the best hydrophobic

agents for modern building materials

including reinforced concrete.

The effectiveness and durability

of a hydrophobic agent is basically

determined by the depth of

penetration and the active material

content in the area of the substrate

near the surface. Funcosil

impregnations have a very high

active agent content and are desi-

gned for high depths of penetration.

Water repellence has therefore

become a simple but technically

high performance method of

protecting both new and old

concrete structures from corrosion

damage.

Characteristics and advantages:

� A ‘cream’ system supplied ready

to use

� Overhead application is no

problem

� Outstanding depth of penetration

due to extended contact time on

the surface

� Active agent content of 80%

by weight gives the maximum

concentration near the surface of

the concrete substrate

� Excellent water repelling

properties

� Visible, homogeneous

application allows quality

controlled application

� Low material consumption and

only one application

� Solvent free system

Even in earlier times, a special

‘plinth’ was formed at the base of

many buildings for protection

against splashing water and / or

rising damp from below. Materials

absorbing as little water as possible

were used. For example, timber

framed buildings were often “raised”

onto stone plinths and rendered

facades were elevated on dense

engineering brick piers.

The method most commonly in use

on new buildings today consists of

installing horizontal barrier layers in

the form of bitumen sheets (DPC or

DPM) into one or more brick, block

or other substrates horizontal con-

struction joints. This only came into

widespread use in the first half of

the 20th century.

In addition to splash zone protection,

remedial installation of a new

horizontal barrier or damproof course

is the most important step towards

maintaining an undamaged found-

ation interface area and therefore a

completely undamaged façade.

Remmers has been a specialist in all

types of façade and foundation

waterproofing and protection for

nearly 60 years. Numerous systems

guaranteeing protection have been

developed for all areas of the

interface, the foundations and

all types of below ground

waterproofing works – including

the refurbishment of deteriorated

bituminous systems etc.

THE FOUNDATION SYSTEMThe ideal solutions to protect against moisture from below

HORIZONTAL MOISTURE

BARRIER (DPC)To install a horizontal moisture barrier, holesare drilled every 100 to 120 mm into whichInjection Cream is applied; alternatively injection points or ‘packers’ are inserted,through which Remmers Kiesol is then injected into the masonry. The existing deteriorated render is completely removedafter installation of the horizontal moisturebarrier (dpc).

1

PRIMING & BOND COATThe prepared substrate is primed with Remmers Kiesol. During the Kiesol reactiontime, a bond coat of Sulfatex Grout slurry isbrush applied.

2

SUBSTRATE LEVELLINGFor the render to cure without cracking, its thickness must be as uniform as possible.Uneven areas and cavities of up to 50 mm are levelled with Remmers Waterproofing fillerdirectly onto the fresh bond coat in one operation.

3

WATERPROOFINGThe foundation area is waterproofed with Sulfatex Grout slurry in at least two appli-cations at intervals of about half an hour. This waterproofing slurry provides durablesplash zone protection and prevents the façade render being leached.

4

REFURBISHMENT RENDERIf splatterdash has been used, the RemmersRefurbishment Render is applied on the hardened substrate after 24 to 48 hourscuring.

6

FINE RENDER & PROTECTIVE

COATINGThe final finishing layer consists of RemmersFine Render and the waterproof diffusible,highly hydrophobic Remmers Silicone ResinPaint LA.

7

SPLATTERDASHRemmers Special Splatterdash can be applied‘wet on wet’ onto the last slurry layer. Alternatively, Remmers Refurbishment RenderWTA without splatterdash, can be appliedonto the last slurry layer while it is still fresh.

Remmers Injection Cream or Kiesol

is applied directly into, or low

pressure spray applied into the

masonry, dependent on the

moisture levels, through a series

of holes. This injection material

acts similarly to an impregnation,

i.e. it soaks into the capillary system

of the building material to form a

continuously impregnated area in

the wall cross-section. In this area

the active ingredients are deposited

in the capillary pores of the sub-

strate and develop two active

mechanisms. Firstly the pores are

constricted and blocked to prevent

moisture transport and secondly

they are made water repellent, so

that an unwettable layer with no

capillary moisture transmission is

formed.

Characteristics and advantages:

� Proven for over 35 years

� Capillary blocking

� Hydrophobic water repelling

� Usable for many different

substrates

� Usable with different existing

moisture levels

� Usable with irregular bedding

joints

� Vibration-free application

The Remmers waterproofing system

for the foundation area normally

uses cementitious materials. In

addition to the Remmers normal

setting Sulfatex Grout slurry which

has been used successfully for

many years, the Sulfatex Grout

Rapid slurry now offers a rapid,

fully tested solution. This also has

high sulphate resistance, but gives a

significant time saving, particularly

on smaller façade sections. This

system is complete with Remmers

Waterproofing Filler, which is used

to level the substrate. A foundation

wall can now be completely

waterproofed in only 3? hours.

Finally the foundations are given

a water vapour diffusible, water

repellent coating.

Characteristics and advantages:

� Innovative “Rapid” technology

saves working time

� System solution with only

a few products and optimum

installation properties

� Levelling on rough substrates of

up to 50 mm in one operation

� The grouting slurry acts as bond

coat and waterproofing

� For small areas: use Sulfatex
